Life at Nor67

One of the quiet pleasures of NOR67 is living in rhythm with the wildlife that makes this place its home. At the heart of the estate lies an eight-acre protected lake, once part of the historic Witley Court grounds and now a designated site of ecological importance. Its waters and surrounding habitats are carefully managed to support native species and maintain a balanced ecosystem.

Immerse yourself

Nature, Wildlife, and Beyond

Guests can follow waymarked footpaths through the parkland and up the valley, taking in views across the lake and towards Witley Court. It’s an easy way to explore the estate while respecting the environment and the wildlife that thrive here.

What might you see? Migrating Canada geese gathered on the lawns; pairs of swans drifting on the lake; herons and kingfishers wading at the water’s edge. Muntjac deer and foxes move quietly through the woodland, while hares and rabbits dart across the meadows. And if you’re lucky, you may catch sight of a more elusive visitor — the local otter.

Each season brings its own rhythm: songbirds marking the long summer mornings, woodpigeons calling through the mist of autumn, the landscape itself changing with the light and the weather.

And don’t forget to look up. On a clear night, the bright canopy of stars completes your view.
